Are these readily available at stores or do you have to get them online?

I ordered some from http://www.preservesmart.com/products.htm#SilicaGelDesiccants which I like better than the ones from Olympus. These change color to indicate when they are wet or dry.

If this is for drying out a drysuit? much cheaper is kitty litter in a pair of old tights.

Honest!

Good suggestion..... but since this is the photography section, I think the kitty litter and tights would be a bit bulky to fit in most camera housings

Yep - I ordered from them, too, and am very happy with them. The 50 you get in an order lasts a long time, too!

I have been wondering about these, in the link provided by maractwin there is a product that also changed from blue to pink when moisture is "sucked up" but it's "rechargeable" via the microwave, or an oven. Are these also "rechargeable" if your able to keep the plastic cover from melting?
